The Live stock Indicator.

There are papers and papers, but the
Western farmers stock raisers and
business men have learned by years Of
experience that they are,alwsys safe in
relying on the long.established weekly
Live Stock Indicator, of Karsa. CITY.
For the quantity and quality of It's
matter Il Is unsurpassed, and as an &C.
curate mirror Of the livestock, grain
aud produce markets it is invariably
consulted and Quoted both East and
West as the ,stqpdagd authority. Its
low price Of, sl.5o per year, or five
copies for 50 Gf sem at one time) puts
1t within the reach of all, hence there
is no reason, why the poor man should
not be as tliouooughly posted as his
more forehanded neighbor as to the
very lowest prices. The BULLETIN
advises all its wide.awaks friends TO

Training the Memory.

The more advanced educators are
regarding the training of memory as
of great importance as, in fact, the
foundation of the intellectual strucf.
ure, Many of Them are advocating
classes for practice, to occu ~ fair
portion of the ordinary school hours,
During these practice hours odd ar.
rangenieots Of words are placed be-
fore the pupils to test their ability in
memorizing quickly. For instanee, q
line of a newspaper Is read straight
across the paper, regardless of the
column rules. The result is tumble
Of disconnected phrases and dlsmem-
bered ideas which is very confusing
and very difficult to remember after
bat one reading. These exercises are
very useful and are rapidly coming
into favor. A man once Boosted in
the presence of Sidney Smith that he
could repeat half column of an
ordinary newspaper OF its equivalent,
after hearing ii but once. Mr., Smith
composed an odd combination of
words which While seemingly nara.
tive, in reality said nothing and the
memorizer, confused by attempting to
follow an idea, was unable to make
good his boast. This com binailon is
often used by the training classes, and
very few children are able 10 commit
II to memory, even after some time
spent in study. A less celebrated wit,
short time ago, ran the following
incoherent sentence into an anti.Stew
art article
III The discharge of this important trust,
this col hdence reposed in the Legislature,
which is that the peoples choce-aud not
individual preferences-is to be obtained. for
If any other choice be made it will be fraud
upon the people and lawyers will tell you
that fraud committed is violation OF law
and yitiatcs everything, a.,

the friends of MI. Stewart, and cause
them perplexins search for the hid:

thing, and passing gradually into
collection of confusing words, that 1t
will probably be adopted as one of the
exercises for the highet classes in
memorlzing.

The holidays in Bellcvllle were
passed very quietly, as there were not
more thah bakers dozen here to
enjoy the luxuries of the forsaken

was, however, owing to the crowd that
went to Candclaria.
On Monday at noon the town was
startled by the fall of the big smoke

roof of the mill and crushed large

the amount o. $4,000.
